Short Polish<->English translations

Thank you, I've given It a try, but in the original the emphasis falls on the middle syllable So-ko-ly, but I can't get Spar-row to sound natural. I was going to use White-Tail as in 'White-tailed Eagle' but I understand that white-tail also refers to deer as well, and probably something else I'm not aware of.

a couple of cheats....

Hey! Hey! Hey proud falcon! (add an adjective)

Hey! Hey! Hey hawk flying! (add a participle)

Or work backward from the rhymes,

omijajcie góry, lasy doły "As you pass by mountains, forests, valleys..." (now work backward from valleys.... or whatever word you put there)

Can someone translate this for me?

Can someone translate this for me?

I can't seem to make out all of the handwriting.

Or at least rewrite it for me?

quick and dirty....

thanks for the drawing :)

The recent time has been hard for me but luckily evertything is slowly getting back to normal. I try more and more to look at the future with excitement and with less of the fear that so often accompanied me. I can't wait for what fate brings next. : )

Hope the OP comes back to thank you. You are a good soul Maf :)

Thank you Mafketis! :)

I am going to send over a Christmas Card to my friend and their family in Poland. May someone let me know if my translation is correct? Thanks!

Wesołych Świąt i Szczęśliwego Nowego Roku o od naszej rodziny do Twojej rodziny.

życzymy wiele zdrowie, szczęścia, ciepła i radości oraz Bożego błogosławieństwa w przeżywaniu Świąt i całego nadchodzącego roku.

Niech Pan Bóg poświeci na Was wszystkich swoimu pełnym miłości światłem

od naszej rodziny dla Twojej rodziny (no 'o' at the begining, either)


I guess this was just a typo, but it should read 'swoim'

@gumishu
Thank you very much! :)

How would you translate to polish word "unfuck" as undoing something that was ******?

Ooops, Polish is too conservative for such nuances. The translation would be typical words like improve, correct sth. Nothing special.

Well, there are plenty of words in Polish derived from word "pier*olic", by adding prefixes such as: spier*** odpier*** napier*** and so on, so I don't see how Polish would be too conservative.for translating "unfuck".

It is, believe me, even if you feel right now it is improbable.

No, I don't believe it. While I don't know if there is a direct translation, I can think of at least couple creative translation, such as "usunąć pierd***" "wykopnąć pierd***" But perhaps some other people can think of better, or preferably more funny translations..

kombinowac = to make stuff up

@Lyzko
It means an awful lot more than that. Quite a complex concept. I use the word often in Polish but when translating professionally would choose a rendering specific to the situation. There's no exact cognate in English, just as Polish doesn't have an exact cognate for the English word "follow".

Hmmm, interesting. Will have to ck. into that, jon.

I somehow recall though "byc nastepca", "nastep(-ow)ac".

But not to follow a person in the street nor follow a profession nor follow a football team or some of the other meanings.

You won't hear many native speakers of Polish in Poland who use the word follow.

Most intriguing! Any inkling as to why?

Perhaps a verb using the preposition "za" would be the
nearest equivalent, e.g. "wyjsc za maz", literally "go after [a] husband"

Iść za exists.

I once had a lot of fun pretending to misunderstand instructions and to confuse "idź za nim" and "idź zanim"...

Thanks, jon!

How would you translate this: "Mój mąż się ładnie odpierdolił."

My husband put on his best clothes.

Like a caretaker on Corpus Christi day.

help with a translation

My grandmother gave me photo with this inscription written on the back, google translate can only come up with something about "USA this summer" I would like to get it translated if you can help. Thanks.

No matter what i do to image it says its too big so perhaps you have a problem on here xD

ibb.co/PGK3B9kr

I don't see anything about the US.... or summer....

I was going to start but the handwriting (very old fashioned) missing letters (didn't show up on photo) and.... odd writing style.... a few times things that should be separate words are written together.... (old fashioned? uneducated? dialect?) defeated me.... I have a bit but I'll let some native speaker decode it more....

[beginning] Beloved sister and brother-in-law,

(I send?) to you this couple of words and (????)

[starting middle of fifth line] because one daughter is married on the reclaimed lands [western Poland]

that one is [????????] and that little one is her grandson who is 3 years old as he wrote to ...

Beloved sister and brother-in-law

I write this couple of words and send you [the photo of] our family [not sure of the following:] only not all of us (???) [the following is clear:] because one daughter is married in the reclaimed lands [clearly this was sent after 1945] .. this other (???) is with her and the little one there is her granddson who is 3. When he [the grandson] wrote the uncle, the uncle sent him some nice clothes.

[the following sentence is probably a plea on behalf of the grandson (or rather in the name of the grandson):] Dear aunt, I, lovely Staś, ask you to send me some shoes your granddaughters don't wear anymore, so I can have shoes for the winter.

Stay in health.

Władysława i Franciszek Domralski(?? - not sure about the surname)

There isn't but if you go down to the 10th line ( which you've already translated ) the first word could be mistaken for usa and lata has been mistaken for lato.

Crative you say? I have a question for you: are you related to Szczelec?Why argue with Pawian, in the idiotic exchange?, for change he is 100% right.
What is the purpose of your inquiry?

Exactly. It is a waste of time coz I am always right. Like other geniuses, e.g, Novi.
And if I am not, then I am still close to being right. Ha!!!
